You can find the bond info per property here.

As others have suggested, be careful to not a bond be the tail that wags the dog.

Be aware the bond is not a personal debt It does not impact your credit. The interest is not tax deductable.

It is a debt against the property and transfers to the next buyer when the property is sold.

Most sellers do not recover the full bond cost when selling the property. Especially in the current market.

It's been said the average Villager move three times. I know several that said not me, paid off their bond, then sold 5 years later and assumed a new bond.

If you have the funds to pay off the bond, better to invest that money and use that interest to offset the bond interest. That way you only pay bond cost for the time you own the home.
